The pre cast bathroom pod

After the concrete had set we began removing the boxing from the sides of the concrete slab in order to let it cure and so we could continue wetting the slab during this process. We also began raising the walls on the bathroom pod so that we could start cladding the exterior in preparation for the internal work on the bathroom. Once this internal work can be completed we can move on to the site at Orakei and join the bathroom pod with the slab poured on site.
